I thought it's something like "I'll set it to 25" or something to that effect.

Nice password there, Capa. That's what I thought at first. I was like, "Wait-- Capa--! Anyone could guess that!" And then I realized that that was stupid and obviously the password isn't meant to be kept secret from everyone and it's just to be absolutely sure it was meant to be accessed. Duh, self.

Now when people say "Sunshine?! That's a stupid title for a movie like this!", we can be like "Hello?! Do you know who I am?? I'm cutting." "'Sunshine' is the password for the stellar bomb. It's the most important word in the entire movie!". ...then comes the awkward silence and then "dork this" and "dork that."

I think you're right. (I just saw it again on Saturday night!)... You saw it AGAIN???!!! Whoa... how many times have you watched it, huh? maybe we ought to have an award for this... LOL... Interestingly... something which was cut out of that scene was Capa typing in the password to the bomb which was... S-U-N-S-H-I-N-E ;D Yup! I read the book and I was all... there's a password??? why didnt we see it in the movie??? I mean, it is afterall, the title of the movie! Could the password thing be made to prevent freaks like Pinbacker from destroying the mission??? Cause you know, they aint thinking well enough to know the password.... maybe Pinbacker might enter "Angel"... *Ahem* Capacker

Wasn't the password SUNSHINE or something?

It's the most important word in the entire movie!". ...then comes the awkward silence and then "dork this" and "dork that." I've now seen the 'alternate ending' (it's not really, they just did the ending in two different ways, though the final ending is rather different due to its editing etc).... and in that Capa says, 'I don't believe in God. ' and Pinbacker says, 'Either did I, but you will find him in the Sunshine'... Then Capa goes off to set off the bomb... and it picks up in the film as we know it... That, as well as the password, *are* relevant. But maybe only to total dorks like me

Wow. There was actually an additional scene like that? I wonder what made Capa said that or what led to that conversation.

Interesting... I always thought Capa accepted God near the end, especially when he touches the Sun in amazement.

He does accept God at the end. He thinks he's seeing God in the Sun (apparently just like Pinbacker told him he would). Well, at least according to Alex Garland (I'm not sure my own personal opinion fits in with that-- I'm more on Alex's team). This is what he said about it: Ultimately, even the most rational crew member is overwhelmed by his sense of wonder and, as he falls into the star, he believes he is touching the face of God.
But he isn't. The Sun is God-like, but not God. Not a conscious being. Not a divine architect. And the crew member is only doing what man has always done: making an awestruck category error when confronted with our small place within the vast and neutral scheme of things. So, I think Capa is accepting God, but I interpret it as that he isn't. He's just seeing the way nature and science blur together. There are no definite or decisive lines to be drawn and everything has shades of gray, and it's not limited to just the film. It's including religion, beliefs, even thoughts and morals.
